Spotlight

Spotlight is the UK’s leading directory of professional performers: featuring photographs and details for over 30,000 actors, actresses, dancers, presenters, child artists and stunt artists. Spotlight is used by most TV, Film, Radio and Theatrical companies in the UK, and many worldwide. Whenever they need a new performer for a part, Spotlight is the first place they look. We hope that, once they have completed their training, many of those performing at NSDF will become members of Spotlight in the future. Please see www.spotlight.com for more information. 

Contacts 

Contacts is the essential handbook for anyone looking to get started in the UK entertainment industry. It contains listings for over 5000 companies, services and individuals across all branches of Stage, Television, Film and Radio. So whether you’re looking for an agent or a casting director, a theatre or a rehearsal room, a photographer or a voice coach, wigs or props – Contacts has it all! Contacts also features pages of helpful advice for budding performers, including valuable insights from leading industry professionals.

Contacts costs £12.00 and you can order a copy direct from Spotlight at www.spotlight.com  or by calling 020 7440 5032. Copies are also for sale from the Spotlight Stand at the NSDF Trade Fair.

Spotlight is delighted to be a sponsor of NSDF, and help support future generations of acting talent.

As the UK's leading directory of professional performers, we believe it is vital to support and nurture those just starting out in the industry. NSDF does this and much, much more! It is a privilege to be involved in the week-long Festival and meet the inspirational students who take part. 

Many of Spotlight's current members had their first taste of the stage via NSDF, and have since gone on to truly great things. We are certain the same will be said of current and future NSDF festival-goers.
